This Hat was the Mystery Beret for November 2008, hosted in the Wormhead’s Hats group here on Ravelry. We had a lot of fun during the KAL and I hope you enjoy the pattern too.

To get the slouch originally intended, you’ll need to a) hit row gauge b) use a yo method that creates a nice big hole and c) fully block the lace. However, knitting additional repeats will create extra slouch and compensate for differences in gauge, and notes for this are included.

About the yarns… above is a list of suitable yarns, both for colourways to suit the stitch pattern and for yardage per skein/100g.
